Reminds Him That Mexico Does In Fact End at U.S. Border
(WASHINGTON, DC) – U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo today sharply criticized Mexican President Felipe Calderon’s comments panning the U.S. government’s efforts to get control of it’s southern border, condemning the treatment of his fellow countrymen who are in the U.S. illegally.
President Calderon delivered his State of the Union speech in Mexico this Sunday; some excerpts include: “We strongly protest the unilateral measures taken by the U.S. Congress and government that have only persecuted and exacerbated the mistreatment of Mexican undocumented workers. … The insensitivity toward those who support the U.S. economy and society has only served as an impetus to reinforce the battle ... for their rights. … Mexico does not end at the border. … Wherever there is a Mexican, Mexico will be there.”
“Indeed part of Mexico is moving into the United States, but unfortunately that includes drug runners, gang violence and the Spanish language supplanting English,” said Tancredo. “I’m sure the people of Mexico would be extremely grateful if Calderon showed as much concern over the well being of Mexicans unlucky enough to still live there as he does for the people who have successfully fled his country.”
Tancredo added, “If Mexico thinks we need some sort of permission slip to act unilaterally in our country’s best interest, they have another thing coming.”
“Perhaps Calderon should take a refresher course on geography, because Mexico does in fact end at the Rio Grande,” concluded Tancredo, pointing out Mexico’s hypocrisy in criticizing U.S. immigration policy as their own country boasts one of the harshest border enforcement programs in North America, as they just deported thousands of illegal aliens from the southern border of Mexico last month.
Calderons’ statements were not “distorted.”
They were made by a jerk who fully intends to let mexicans invade the US and suck up whatever resources are available to them and his country.
History will prove Tancredo right over time.
Tanc strikes again!
“PerhapsCalderonGeorge W. Bush should take a refresher course on geography, because Mexico does in fact end at the Rio Grande,” concluded Tancredo, pointing out Mexico’s hypocrisy in criticizing U.S. immigration policy as their own country boasts one of the harshest border enforcement programs in North America, as they just deported thousands of illegal aliens from the southern border of Mexico last month.
There. Fixed it.
Ping.
